I feel this, I grew up on football (near Green Bay so obviously). I had to fall in love with a team to really get into baseball. But the tension during a close, meaningful baseball game is exquisite. The best kind of slow burn imo.

I went to Maders for the first time the last time I was in town, that place is a TRIP! My partner and I split the German sampler and it was still more than we could eat - I’d recommend going that route if you go with someone.

The 3rd Street Market Hall and the Milwaukee Public Market are both fun places to check out with lots of decent food options. If you go to the market, stop at West Allis Cheese and Sausage Shop and get the Milwaukeean Bloody Mary, it’s delightful, a boozy Wisco charcuterie board in a cup

Hero’s of the day - In a small town of Beckley, WV, Kendra Sullivan staged a one-woman No Kings protest. She was confronted, had the police called on her, but stood her ground. She was physically threatened. Police came more than once and protected her right to protest. This is how we do it.

You’re welcome! It’s brilliant, truly!!

We had nearly 1k in Menomonie, WI (population 16k)! Marched all through downtown led by a brass band second line style. It was amazing.

I can’t believe it’s even necessary to say that NO city in ANY country deserves or should be INVADED by its federal government.

I thought we cared about people. Isn’t that the real point? Everyone needs liberation, most of all the people who don’t know.

When I see people online, even in jest, suggest that people living in Republican-controlled states should be abandoned because of their politicians, I feel a deep heartache. New York CREATED Donald Trump and none of y’all are ever talk about it the way you disparage Alabama or Mississippi.

The COVID-19 pandemic undermined the right in several key ways:

1) It showed us which workers are essential and empowered them.

2) It showed that the markets can’t solve everything.

2) It threatened GOP political prospects in a critical election.

4) Government relief proved popular and effective

Haha fair enough - and you’re welcome! I live near Durand, happy to help if you have other questions about the area or need recommendations. Safe travels!

If you end up in this area, make sure you grab some pie at the Stockholm Pie Company while you’re there!

Our task isn't to be cruel, or to make people suffer. Our task is to fucking build a movement that can take power so that suffering may be reduced.

And being cruel behind a keyboard doesn't help to build that movement.

You’d have to head a little further north in WI, but Door County is lovely and Newport State Park is perfect for astrophotography: dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/parks/...
